Tier 1 IP Boosts Web Hosting Security

TIER 1 IP BOOSTS WEB HOSTING SECURITY

New TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention Systems Protect Dedicated and Virtual Dedicated Hosting

Tier 1 IP, a turn-key technology solutions provider, has added another layer of security to its web hosting platform, deploying TippingPoint™ Intrusion Prevention Systems to block attacks.

Tier 1 IP has put TippingPoint systems in place to protect all dedicated and virtual dedicated hosting servers at no additional cost to customers. An intrusion prevention system is an in-line device that scans traffic and, based on rules, determines whether data packets are legitimate or malicious.

In addition to this valuable security feature, each dedicated and virtual dedicated hosting plan currently includes free rapid setup, a free SSL certificate and 24/7 customer support, physical security and network monitoring.

One customer “blocked over 20,000 individual infection attempts within the first hour and helped their business by reducing downtime and avoiding crippling infections" by using a solution from Tipping Point.

TippingPoint systems deliver powerful network protection, functioning transparently at gigabit speeds to guard against cyber attacks. TippingPoint's Digital Vaccine® service updates filters regularly to maintain defense against the latest vulnerabilities, viruses and rogue applications.
